Then you've found your problem. Either rename the other cat or fiddle

So:

   We should add 'cat' to the list of tools checked.

It also sounds like:
   We should require certain tools (bash, bison,...,sed,,...)
   (in addition to the already checked /usr/bin/find) should
   be in /usr/bin.

   Does this seem too restrictive ?

   ISTR previous cases where something other with the same
   name as a cygwin exec (e.g. sed) was found because of the
   way PATH was set up.
